The first thing we tried was the deep fried pickles, which I thought was awesome - yet that was probably the worst thing we ended up getting. The stew is frankly amazing. It's like a barbecue gumbo (but better than that sounds). It's so meaty, and yet the broth itself is this rich liquid which is like the essence of barbecue itself. It came with the best cornbread I've had outside of the United States (although I come from the UK which basically takes the opportunity to mess up cornbread every time I've had it). The pulled pork croquettes were also stand outs, as was just the overall service. Super friendly, and just chatting but in an unobtrusive way. Even though we were completely stuffed, we ordered the banana pudding. This was a very good choice, but I have to say that it's only the second best I've ever had. The first is Magnolia Bakery in New York, so frankly it's still quite the compliment!! Just so good. If I was in Stockholm longer, I'd be tempted to come back.

The place is furnished from top to bottom with cowboy references, complete with saddle barstools at the bar. The tables are small and they've crammed as many as they possibly could into the small space they have. The menu is all about steaks and burgers, with "cowboy style" sides like beans, corn cobs and that kind of stuff (my kind of stuff!) I was in a party of four and we ordered a starter platter with chicken wings and what not to share before the main course. It was good but not incredible. For main I ordered a rib eye steak and I was very clear that I wanted it rare. I even added that "it should have a pulse". What I got was medium at best. Orders like "rare" and even "medium rare" seem hard for chefs to nail (or easy to forget) because they always seem to mess it up and get me medium. I complained (which is always uncomfortable when you're the type who doesn't want to be bothersome to anyone) and they got me a new stake which was indeed bloody. I got a sincere apology from the chef via the waitress and also desert on the house. Still, I had to eat my meat alone since the other three in my party had already eaten their main courses by then. That's always a drag. Then I ordered my free desert with extra spoons and shared it with the others. All in all, a pleasing restaurant experience. I would gladly come back!

First of all if you are claustrophobic stay away! The restaurant is practically in a dungeon :) (…read morewell, at least the downstairs where we were served) We were a big party of 16 & almost everyone ordered steak which was pretty juicy & good but unfortunately the way they presented the dishes wasn't the best, you know what they say, half of the experience is in what you see not what you put in your mouth & their dishes wasn't very inviting. The creamy corn that is one of the sides is just delicious but the mashed potato thingy is so blunt & dry that is almost impossible to swallow so I suggest you switch that to fries or something else! They have a good selection of different American beers ( ex: Sierra Nevadas, Samuel Adams...). The service was extremely slow but I guess it's not so strange when they are preparing food for 16 ppl!

Let me start by saying the only reason this place gets 4 stars is because it's a BBQ place in…read moreStockholm. As a guy who spends weekend smoking brisket and pork butts, getting BBQ out is usually disappointing in the states, let alone Sweden. I was either very homesick or super curious about what Swedish BBQ would be like. In hindsight it was a little of both. Ordered a cocktail and the BBQ sampler. Cocktail was fine. The menu is littered with sweet cocktails like many restaurants. Was hoping for something boozy but that's not to be found. The sampler was good overall. Portions were sufficient but certainly small by American standards. Not sure that's the appropriate frame of reference but it is smaller. Highlights/ Lowlights - let's start with the key differentiator of good BBQ, brisket. The brisket had good bark and was smokey but no smoke ring makes me think it was liquid smoke. It was cooked well but a cardinal sin was committed. The brisket was cut in the wrong direction making it stringy. - variety of sides and veggies were nice. Pickled items were good. Potato salad was unevenly cooked. - cornbread tasted good but fell apart in the hand -BBQ sauce and chipotle sauce were nice. BBQ didn't quite fall into Texas or KC style. It was thick but had a sweet and sour taste. Not bad but not Texas. - ribs were rough. Short little ribs that were over cooked. They weren't baby back. Just the small end of spare ribs. Or maybe they were cut. - fried chicken was good. It was thigh meat cut away from the bone. Tasted good but if you're looking for a traditional fried chicken, you'll be disappointed. - sausage was actually the highlight of the whole meal. It had a crispy skin and good flavor. Was almost like a Chinese sausage. All in all a good experience. Not the best BBQ in the world but certainly good for being in a Nordic country. Would recommend it if you keep and open mind about where you are.

This bar/restaurant offered me a small piece of Austin during my travels. I can say I didn't eat here because I typically avoid American dining while traveling aboard. My husband and I did, however, enjoy a drink so we could take in the Austin scenery. My husband ordered a Texas Amber beer and I ordered a local cider. Overall a cool place and would recommend all to check it out.

It could definitely…read morehave used a bit more flavor, cheese, slaw or spice, but I did like the crispy chicken texture. If I did it again, I would have asked for extra slaw and put more of the Sriracha in it. I don't think it was out of this world amazing, but it wasn't that bad either! One of their biggest detractors would be the speed of the service. It was incredibly slow. To be fair, we were at a very big event with a lot of people. Even so, I still think that for a food truck they were pretty behind on time. The wait time was like that of a sit down BBQ joint, only we were standing up in the rain! LOL. Not so much fun! =( Other than that, if they were in the same area as me and easily accessible at lunch time... I would probably give them another try.

The food lacked flavor, and the fries left a greasy aftertaste, as if they had been cooked in low-quality or old oil. The burger was even worse, it had a harsh, bitter flavor that reminded me of food cooked on an unclean grill or cooking surface. I also noticed they were using ICA Basic ingredients, which isn't necessarily a problem, but the food should still taste much better than this. It's a shame because I was really looking forward to trying this place. Perhaps I was just unlucky on this visit, but based on this experience, I wouldn't rush back.

The bar itself is small and cozy, but probably had one of the better beer and liquor selections in the area. I had a fantastic Mikkeler pale ale and CG found the sour beer of her dreams. The menu here consists of a variety of palm sized arepas, and oh my gosh I would've eaten a half dozen of them if we didn't have dinner plans immediately after. We split the al pastor, which consisted of the most tender and flavorful shredded pork, caramelized pineapple, crema and cilantro. The combo was freaking amazing, and the arepa itself was the perfect thickness, with a hint of sweetness and crispy edges. While my friend Juan would point out that al pastor is actually from Central America, there's nothing wrong with a little Latin fusion, especially when it's this delicious. The chef here is actually from Venezuela, so you know it's legit!

Only open in the summer they barbecue pork outside in the inner yard of the Victory Hotel (where also Tweed, Burgundy, Djuret and Omakase are located - and next door, run by the same people Pubologi as well). The first year this place was really amazing - the food was amazing value for money, slowly grilled and served perfectly tender. After that it has been a lot more up and down so cannot give it more than three stars. The food is usually good but not always and prices are still decent for food but for drinks it is often overpriced. Service is also up and down but usually friendly but too often forgetful. Still I do like the ambiance and it is nice to be able to sit outside and enjoy nice weather part of the year in Sweden.

After hearing about this restaurant and grabbing a drink in their nice courtyard a week before our…read morevisit I was very excited about trying their BBQ pork dinner. The setting is really the only good thing about this place, nice cozy courtyard in old town Stockholm with Cuban music. Our experience started out bad with the poor service level. We were 4 people and one of us were late. The other three got to sit down and look at the menu. At a nice restaurant they would normally ask you pretty quickly if you would like to get a drink while waiting for the last person. That did not happen here. After 15 min wait time we tried to flag down a waitress. She replied hurriedly with a "Söder" hipster attitude that she would be right with us. 5 min later she still has not come by so we flagged down another waiter. He was nice and took our drink order. They have two kinds of beer on tap, one light pilsner and one darker pale ale. The selection of bottled beer is limited but with a really good quality micro brew selection. When I ordered the pale ale, which was notably darker in the color than the pilsner, the same hipster waitress from our first encounter with their poor service brought me a pilsner. I pointed it out to her and she brought be a new one with the excuse that it was hard to see the color in the dark setting. That was totally BS since we could spot it from 5 meters away when she brought it. Now to the food, we all got the BBQ pork dinner which is kind of what the concept in this restaurant is about. 5 different parts of the pig served with triple fried French fries and three kind of dipping sauces for 275 SEK a person. Sounds really good, doesn't it? Well, there is a reason it is only 275 SEK. Here is the break down: French fries, decent but have definitely had better. Sauces, eatable but not very good. Could have made all of these at home much better. Now to the important part, the meat. The pork belly and the chuckadoodles were both pretty good. Nice smokey flavour and great texture. The chops were pretty dry and over cooked and did not have that much flavour. The ribs were nothing to write home about, also dry and lacking flavour. Now to the horrible part, the pulled pork. I personally love pulled pork but this was one of the worst I have ever had. It was way over salted and spiced with too much cumin. The only way to eat it was to drench it with their mediocre BBQ sauce. Here is also when the service went even further downhill. My wife, who has worked in a lot of restaurants and a is a great chef, pointed out to our waitress that she should tell the chef that the pulled pork was way too salty. We did not expect anything in return, just a nice apology and a "yes, I will definitely let him know. Thanks for telling us." This is the response we got "Uuuuhhh hmm ok". It is obvious they have hired a bunch of young people with no service experience what so ever. I think it is great to provide young people with work but please give them a crash course in customer service and normal behavior towards other people. This place would not have stayed open more than a month if it was in the US but since it is in Stockholm, were people expect bad service, it still is very busy. Overall: really nice atmosphere were meat lovers without taste buds could go to drink decent micro brews and wines for a reasonable price and be treated like an annoyance instead of a paying customer.

It holds a spot as one of my favorite non-Asian soups I may have ever ordered at a restaurant. I would go back just for that! The wine and cider list is also pretty big & not overpriced. The ambiance is very cozy with cushy booths and a fireplace. The only negative is that the service is very slow (especially if you sit in the back section like we did), and they sometimes forgot to bring us things we ordered such as new drinks.
